#40: c2hs: fails reading its own intermediate representation (.chi)

--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
This bug was reported against the Debian package of c2hs, at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=652507
c2hs uses shown Language.C data structures as an intermediate
representation (the .chi files), and has its own code for parsing
them. It seems that Language.C has changed its Show instance for
lexemes, and c2hs can no longer parse its own .chi files.
The symptom for me is that "cabal build" fails with the following
error message:
c2hs: Prelude.read: no parse
Patch attached.
(Patch at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=c2hs.diff;att=1;bug=652507)
Greetings,
